Chapter 298 The Flying Team (Part 2)

"They are there!" The lookout member standing on the outer fence of the command tower shouted loudly, stretching out his hand to point in the direction of discovering the target.¥f,.

"Well, it's them, very punctual." Major Thierry raised his wrist and looked at the time, nodded to his subordinates around him. This is the normal performance of the professional army. It is not like the group of old men in the Colonial Air Force. They did not miss the flight transition plan in the past.

The Hele Air Force Base (there are also translated as Huale or Hele) is the only airport in Tokyo, Vietnam that is built for military purposes only. It was originally entrusted to it to protect the airspace security from the Tokyo to the coastal defense line. But in fact, because the former Governor was a liberal who advocated peace, the French Indochina Air Force was constantly weakened, and in the end, the air force stationed at this airport was only three Devatina 510s and two old Newports, and they were often unable to take off due to lack of parts. Such air force, let alone protecting Tokyo coastal defense, may not even be able to protect itself.

Before Jean-Deguk arrived, the French Indochina authorities could only rely on a bunch of broken iron and old and weak soldiers to protect their airspace. No wonder the former Governor Carut was discouraged and made a decision to compromise with the Japanese army. However, the current situation is very different. With Germany's support for France behind the scenes, the Japanese's activities on the border have obviously been restrained a lot during this period. The original garrisons in northern French Indochina finally breathed a sigh of relief. The reinforcements from the south gave them a renewed confidence. Looking at the arrogant and arrogant face of the French defenders on duty on the border, you will know that the French have regained their pride in front of the Japanese.

When the French engineers were building this air force base, they planned according to the standards of European large military airports. In order to take off and land large transport aircraft, they built a rammed earth runway of 2,200 meters long. At the same time, they also built a taxiway of the same length on one side of the runway, and a tarmac that was enough to park a flight brigade at the same time. The French were not satisfied with this. Finally, on one side of the airport, another landing runway with an angle of 60 degrees to the main runway. As a result, in such a huge airport, they only parked five old aircraft pitifully, exposing the essence of the French Indochina garrison's external strength and middle work.

"Black Hawk. This is Violet. We see you. Please land on Runway 1. It's over." The controller pressed the radio sending button and began to guide the German squadron to land.

This kind of light rain is not a big problem for experienced pilots. After confirming the location of the runway, the German fighter squadron began to line up in columns and circled the runway into four-sided landing routes, and then landed one after another on the wet runway. Because Vietnam has special climate conditions and the rainy season is very long, this point was considered when building the airport. The runway was crushed and rammed very solid. Not only is it difficult to penetrate the ordinary rainy water, but even one weed can not grow on weekdays, which can ensure that the airport can be used normally during the long rainy season.

The fully armed fw190 roared past the low altitude in front of the command tower. This was the first time the French saw such advanced fighter jets. Everyone present was amazed by this masterpiece of the German aviation industry. As the commander of the squadron, Major Shiboru was ranked first in the formation to land when landing at a strange airport, one to test the situation of the runway and also to demonstrate for his subordinates.

The Air Force Major skillfully drove her powerful war machine and landed gently on the runway like a feather. The landing gear landed at three points at the same time, showing the driver's solid skills. When the fighter marked with the captain's oblique sign slowly slid into the apron, Major Thierry, who had already arrived there to greet him, quickly met with his adjutant and several French ground crew members.

Pulling the cabin door lock and pushing it back hard, Major Shi Boru stood up from the cockpit, quickly flipped out of the cabin, stretched his legs and stepped on the foot of the fuselage, and flew to the apron.

"Welcome, welcome, I am Major Thierry, the commander of the base." Thierry walked forward with a smile, spreading his hands to give the German pilot a warm hug, but then he was really shocked by the scene he saw in front of him.

The German pilot took off his black flying hat and showed a beautiful and delicate face. Although he had short blond hair like a boy, this face could not be a man no matter how he looked. The French major's open arms froze in the air, with an awkward expression on his face. The other party's gender is unknown. If he was held, would he be shot dead on the spot?

"Major Shi Boru, commander of the Luftwaffe Asian Task Force." This kind of performance of Shi Boru towards the major has long been common. He smiled and stretched out his hand to the other party.

It is even more certain that the German pilot captain was indeed a woman. Thierry quickly put away his arms and held the other party's outstretched hand. This was the first time in his life that such a thing happened. Thierry didn't know what attitude to communicate with the other party at this time.

The French army is a completely male society. The favorite slogan is that women walk away from war. Except for the nurses in the military hospital, there is no woman from top to bottom. When flying became a fashionable thing, there were also several rebellious female pilots in France, but they were all performed in folk performances and had never heard of anyone entering the army. But the person in front of him was not only a woman, but also an officer. What surprised Thierry was that the other party had the same military rank as him. Thinking of this, the old colonel couldn't help but feel a little sad. He had been living for most of his life, but the result was not as fast as a young girl.

"Major Thierry, please wait a moment, I still have some luggage on the plane," Sboru said to Thierry.

"No problem, Major, we have time." Thierry said and winked at the adjutant who was holding an umbrella for him.

"Oh?" The other party tilted his head and blinked his eyes at him.

"Umbrella!" Thierry gritted his teeth and whispered.

"Oh!" Lieutenant Simon nodded vigorously with great enlightenment, and then handed the umbrella held in his hand to the German major.

"Oh, thank you very much." Shi Boru was not pretentious. She nodded directly to Simon to thank him, and then walked towards her landline with an umbrella.

"My God." Thierry raised his face and sighed at the raindrops all over the sky. What kind of evil did he do? He found such a fool to be an adjutant. Major Thierry felt distressed in his heart. He walked to the side of the car parked beside him, took out another umbrella from the car and held it up.

As the German fighter jets landed one after another, the apron quickly became busy. Groups of ground crew members led German fighter jets and arranged them neatly around the apron. Various French commands echoed on the ground, and the eyes were filled with French ground crew wearing raincoats.

"After a while, we will pull the plane to the hangar to park. We have five large hangars, enough for all your planes to use." Major Thierry was trying his best to adjust his mindset. He decided to treat the other party as a military officer at the same level first. As for the others, they would have to wait until they get in touch before they can do so. Anyway, these Germans have to stay at this base for a long time, and they have time to find appropriate and appropriate ways to deal with it.

"For the time being, we can only do this. Because the ground staff of the task force have to carry a large number of equipment and supplies, they can only walk from the highway, and they will arrive one after another in about two days. The maintenance and maintenance work will not start until they arrive." Shi Boru replied.

"We can do some work like fueling and charging before they arrive," Major Thierry said.

"That's great. If something happens, we can go out immediately. You are very thoughtful, Major Thierry." Shiboru praised the French army's proposal.

The German pilots were gathering next to the taxiway at this time. After the assembly was completed, the administrative adjutant of the brigade ran to Shi Boru in small steps and saluted and reported to her.

"The first squadron has assembled, and this time the landing is very smooth, sir."

"Very good. Everyone brings personal belongings. French friends will take you to your residence and give you two hours of sorting and rest time. Two hours later, gather in the meeting room of the base to summarize today's flight." Shi Boru said with a serious face and ordered loudly.

"This is Lieutenant Simon, and he will take you to the room where you rest." Thierry pushed Simon to the German adjutant.

"As for orders, sir." The administrative adjutant glanced at the French lieutenant, then saluted Shi Boru with a military salute. After receiving the gift, he immediately turned around and ran back to the queue.

"The Luftwaffe is indeed well-trained. Major Shboru, are you going to my office or to rest in your residence? We have specially arranged an officer's suite for you and your adjutants." Thierry asked diligently.

"I'd better finish the official business first. I brought a letter from Major General Duval, the French Indochina Air Force, and you need to sign for it." Shi Boru replied.

"Then please go here. The office is far away. You need to take a bus, Major Sboru." Thierry turned sideways and made an invitation gesture, then walked towards the car next to him with an umbrella.

Shi Boru straightened the military cap on his head, held an umbrella in one hand and lifted his luggage with the other. He turned his face to look at the fighter crew under the rain curtain, and then followed Major Thierry with great strides. (To be continued.)
